What are the Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) values of the phones you sell?
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) for Cellular Telephones
Food & Drug Administration
To date, there is no consistent or credible scientific evidence of health problems caused by the exposure to radio frequency energy emitted by cell phones (fda.gov). Nonetheless, Consumer Cellular wants our customers to be well informed as the wireless industry and government agencies continue to monitor the ongoing research into this important subject.
Scientific Evidence for Cell Phone Safety
Federal Communications Commission
Working closely with federal health and safety agencies, such as the Food and Drug Administration, the FCC has adopted limits for safe exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy. These limits are given in terms of a unit referred to as the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR), which is a measure of the amount of radio frequency energy absorbed by the body when using a mobile phone. The FCC requires cell phone manufacturers to ensure that their phones comply with these objective limits for safe exposure. Any cell phone at or below these SAR levels (that is, any phone legally sold in the U.S.) is a "safe" phone, as measured by these standards. The FCC limit for public exposure from cellular telephones is an SAR level of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg).
